The digital twins technology delivers a new degree of freedom into system implementation and maintenance practice. Using this approach, a technological system can be efficiently modeled and simulated. Furthermore, such a twin offline system can be efficiently used to investigate real system issues and improvement opportunities, e.g., improvement of the existing control system or development of a new one. This work describes the development of a control system using the digital twins methodology for a gas system delivering a specific mixture of gases to the time-of-flight (ToF) multipurpose detector (MPD) used during high-energy physics experiments in the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna, Russia). The gas system digital twin was built using a test stand and further extended into target full-scale installation planned to be built in the near future. Therefore, conducted simulations are used to validate the existing system and to allow validation of the planned new system. Moreover, the gas system digital twin enables testing of new control opportunities, improving the operation of the target gas system.

With the construction of the Large Hadron Collider at the European Center for Nuclear Research (CERN), the radiation levels at large High Energy Physics (HEP) experiments are significantly increased with respect to past experience. The approach the HEP community is using to ensure radiation tolerance of the electronics installed in these new generation experiments is described. Particular attention is devoted to developments that led to original work: the estimate of the SEU rate in the complex LHC radiation environment and the use of hardness by design techniques to achieve radiation hardness of ASICs in a commercial CMOS technology.

The DØ experiment at Fermilab's Tevatron will record several petabytes of data over the next five years in pursuing the goals of understanding nature and searching for the origin of mass. Computing resources required to analyze these data far exceed capabilities of any one institution. Moreover, the widely scattered geographical distribution of DØ collaborators poses further serious difficulties for optimal use of human and computing resources. These difficulties will exacerbate in future high energy physics experiments, like the LHC. The computing grid has long been recognized as a solution to these problems. This technology is being made a more immediate reality to end users in DØ by developing a grid in the DØ Southern Analysis Region (DØSAR), DØSAR-Grid, using all available resources within it and a home-grown local task manager, McFarm. We will present the architecture in which the DØSAR-Grid is implemented, the use of technology and the functionality of the grid, and the experience from operating the grid in simulation, reprocessing and data analyses for a currently running HEP experiment.

ABSTRACTCerium fluoride offers a reasonable compromise between parameters like the density, the light yield, the scintillation characteristics (particularly the decay time) and the radiation hardness, and is considered today as the best candidate for large electromagnetic calorimeters in future High Energy Physics experiments. Details on the performances of large crystals produced by different manufacturers all over the world and measured by the Crystal Clear collaboration will be shown and the usefulness of a good collaboration between the industry and the users will be highlighted by some examples on the light yield and radiation hardness improvement.
